Renovating our home with the assistance of Placement and their relationship with Phil Maher Builder was essentially a stress free adventure. PlaceMate worked with us to achieve our dream home. Our home was modernised without losing the charm of a post war cottage. Our house has become a functional, open & light filled home. Which is now the central family meeting place. We even discovered that Architects, Engineers and Builders DO get on and work well together. Even though our budget was small, through the architectural skills and listening skills, PlaceMate turned our needs into the home we wanted.

Builders build, tradies trade, but the architect has the vision and ideas. Thanks Jan for your wonderful suggestions.

Jan, you did a fantastic job translating our unformed ideas into a classy home, fulfilling all our requirements. We are most impressed that you were able to design such a unique and spacious home on a small block and yet one that blends in with the ambience of the suburb without being ostentatious. Your choice of building materials was inspired and the design incorporating the high ceiling in the living/dining/kitchen area impresses everyone who sees it. We also appreciated your no-nonsense, straightforward, approach to the whole project. Congratulations on a great job

Thank you. I didn’t really understand the drawings, but now the house is finished I can see that you took my ideas and suggestions and made them beautiful. Everything is perfect. Every morning I say to my husband, I love this house.
